Figure 2From: Rivaroxaban and other novel oral anticoagulants: pharmacokinetics in healthy subjects, specific patient populations and relevance of coagulation monitoringSimulations of rivaroxaban plasma concentration–time profiles in typical patients compared with overall population estimates. Typical patients are elderly (90 years), have moderate to severe renal impairment; CrCl 30 ml/min), have low body weight (40 kg), or are elderly with low body weight. Patients receiving rivaroxaban 10 mg once daily (mean with 90% interval) [11]. CrCL/CrCl, creatinine clearance. Reproduced with permission from Mueck W, Borris LC, Dahl OE et al.
